Speedy deletion nomination of Vodka mariette


A tag has been placed on Vodka mariette, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

How to NOT be promotional?
Hi, I just uploaded my first page! But I'm being told it may be deleted because it's promotional. What do you think? Is there something major wrong that I'm missing? Open to any feedback/revisions. Thanks! Joshswinz (talk) 04:06, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi . If you're creating a page for the first time, I highly suggest using the Article Wizard to create a Draft. Drafts are a good idea for new articles because it means that if it is not up to Wikipedia's standards, it can be improved (rather than deleted). The reviewers will give feedback on the Draft and specifically what needs changing (such as promotional language). If you want more help, stop by the Teahouse, the IRC channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance. Primefac (talk) 10:48, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
